The Rungne Highballer Soft Stretch Utility Pant handles the moves that punish ordinary pants: the high-step onto a sloper, the heel hook that loads the inseam, the long sit at the base of a project. Articulated knees and a reinforced gusset work together to keep the fabric out of the way when the climbing demands full range, so the pant holds up across a full season of bouldering and crag days without losing its shape. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"The articulated knees matter on a high-step. The fabric moves with the leg instead of pulling back against it, so nothing interrupts the sequence."
